Const. Am./Require Photo ID For All Voters.
Senate Bill 921 proposes a constitutional amendment to require all voters in North Carolina to present photographic identification before voting, regardless of whether they vote in person or by mail. The bill directs the General Assembly to create specific rules for what counts as valid photo ID and allows for potential exceptions. This measure will be put to a public vote at the statewide general election on November 3, 2026, where voters will decide whether to adopt the new requirement. If approved by a majority of voters, the change becomes part of the state constitution; if rejected, it has no effect.
